00:03:53,333 --> 00:03:56,928
I told them yesterday
I thoughtI could make
a controlled buy— marijuana.
47
00:03:57,003 --> 00:04:00,268
That‘s what I‘ve been working

00:04:18,258 --> 00:04:20,749
Well, I circulated around,

I was looking for this fellow, Kinks.
Real name‘s Lou Gonners.
Got a record.
56
00:04:25,131 --> 00:04:29,727
Mysetup with him was pretty loose.
He said if/ was interested / could
find him up in Hollywood tonight
57
00:04:29,803 --> 00:04:33,933
So I made the Red Fox, the Apex
and this pool hall down the street, Cooley‘s.
58
00:04:34,007 --> 00:04:36,339
— You talk to anybody?
— Well, let‘s see.
59
00:04:36,409 --> 00:04:38,639
At the Red Fox,
there was this guyJohn.

Got a little gold earring
in his left ear.
64
00:04:50,056 --> 00:04:53,958
Then there was Barstow, male Cauc,

He’s a cycle hound
You find a chrome bike up there,
and he won ’t be farawa y
68
00:05:03,803 --> 00:05:06,533
Then I bumped into a couple

69
00:05:06,606 --> 00:05:09,939
— I/angie and Chickie.
Hair out to here. You know the bit

00:05:10,009 --> 00:05:12,807
Then at the Apex, I don‘t remember

71
00:05:12,879 --> 00:05:14,847

— You gonna check these people out?
— That‘s right.
76
00:05:28,695 --> 00:05:32,722
Wish I could give you more to work on.
You can‘t push for information
with these characters.

00:05:32,799 --> 00:05:34,790
L ast name,
that sort of thing
Go on.
78
00:05:34,868 --> 00:05:38,770
Then I went back down the street
to this place called the Absolute.
I spotted Kinks standing outside.
79
00:05:38,838 --> 00:05:42,069
I didn‘t go in.
Told him I was interested
in a couple pounds of pot.
80
00:05:42,141 --> 00:05:44,769
He said, did I have the bread?
I said, “Yes, in my car."
81
00:05:44,844 --> 00:05:47,142
He told me to go on back there and wait.
He‘d come by.
82
00:05:47,213 --> 00:05:49,204
I told him where the car was
and took off.
83
00:05:49,282 --> 00:05:51,750
— What time was this?
— 9:06.
84
00:05:51,818 --> 00:05:55,515

85
00:05:55,588 --> 00:05:58,648
— Right. Go on.
— I went back to my car and waited.
86
00:05:58,725 --> 00:06:01,785
I was still sitting there
when the black—and—white unit
came by and put the light on me.
87
00:06:01,861 --> 00:06:04,295
I showed ‘em my ID.
and told ‘em what was going on.
88
00:06:04,364 --> 00:06:06,855
They took me to the Hollywood station.
You know the rest.
89
00:06:06,933 --> 00:06:10,027
— You sat in your car the whole time?
—That‘s right. I never left it.
90
00:06:10,103 --> 00:06:13,197
The radio car officers said
they found you looking into the trunk.
91
00:06:13,273 --> 00:06:16,538
Oh, that. Well, I‘d put my gun and my ID.
back there, under the spare tire.
92
00:06:16,609 --> 00:06:18,577
/ was sitting there,
and / got to thinking
93
00:06:18,645 --> 00:06:22,581
This Kinks—
/ ’d seen his record and he ’s a hardnose.
/ was reaching in the trunk to get m y gun.
94
00:06:22,649 --> 00:06:26,210
I was gonna put it under the seat.
Thought I‘d better have it handy.
That‘s all that was.
95
00:06:26,286 --> 00:06:31,087
Now, these places you went to—
you went from the Red Fox to the Apex
to Cooley‘s Pool Hall to the Absolute.
96
00:06:31,157 --> 00:06:32,852
— Yes, sir.
— In that order.

00:06:32,926 --> 00:06:34,860
— Yes, sir.
— [Knocking]
98
00:06:36,129 --> 00:06:40,122
— That means you passed
Herbie‘s Liquor Store.
— I could have.
99
00:06:40,199 --> 00:06:42,258
Then from Cooley‘s,
you went to the Absolute.
100
00:06:42,335 --> 00:06:44,428
You passed that liquor store again.
Isn‘t that right?
101
00:06:44,504 --> 00:06:47,302
— That‘s right,
but I didn‘t go in the liquor store.
— Are you sure?
102
00:06:47,373 --> 00:06:50,001
Yes, /’m sure.
You know /’m sure.
[Door Opening]
103
00:06:51,945 --> 00:06:54,072
We‘re ready for the show—up.
104
00:06:54,147 --> 00:06:56,377
— Show—up? For what?
— Granousky, the man who was robbed.
105
00:06:56,449 --> 00:06:59,043
— Let‘s go.
— I didn‘t have any part ofthis,
and you know it.
106
00:06:59,118 --> 00:07:02,212
The only thing we know
is we want the truth,
a straight story that‘ll wash.
107
00:07:02,288 --> 00:07:04,449
I‘ve told you the truth.
I‘ve told you all I know.
108
00:07:04,524 --> 00:07:06,754
You haven‘t told us who pulled
that 211 in that liquor store.
109
00:07:06,826 --> 00:07:09,294
— Itwasn‘t me. How many times
do I have to tell you?
—Till we believe it.
110
00:07:09,362 --> 00:07:12,024
— Ifthis doesn‘t tear it.
— What do you mean by that?
111
00:07:12,098 --> 00:07:14,931
— They don‘t preach
this kind ofstuffat the academy.
— What‘s that, Culver?
112
00:07:15,001 --> 00:07:18,266
All thatjazz about the force—
the teamwork, working together.
113
00:07:18,338 --> 00:07:20,329
This is a fine example ofit, isn‘t it?
114
00:07:20,406 --> 00:07:23,307
I‘m on the same team as you.
I‘m no two—bit punk suspect. I‘m a cop.
115
00:07:23,376 --> 00:07:27,642
Then think like one.
You know you‘re gonna walk out ofthis room
totally innocent or totally guilty.
116
00:07:27,714 --> 00:07:30,444
There‘s no in—between foryou
or any other man in this department.
117
00:07:30,516 --> 00:07:34,577
Ifyou‘re clean, we‘ll do all we can
to helpyou prove it. Ifyou‘re guilty,
we‘re gonna lean on you hard
118
00:07:34,654 --> 00:07:37,919
One officer to another— my word?
That oughta mean something.
119
00:07:37,991 --> 00:07:41,188
— It does, butjust like anybody else.
— Yeah?
120
00:07:41,260 --> 00:07:43,854
It‘s not enough.

00:08:04,584 --> 00:08:07,314
[Friday Narrating]
7 7:47 pm. The show—up was over.
122
00:08:07,387 --> 00:08:11,847
We returned Ofiicer Paul Culver
to /nterrogation Room "D. ”
123
00:08:11,924 --> 00:08:14,415
Go on in. Sit down.
124
00:08:14,494 --> 00:08:17,190
Those names he gave us?
Narcotics is checking them out.
Yeah.
125
00:08:17,263 --> 00:08:19,424
Better fill the captain in.
Right.
126
00:08:25,838 --> 00:08:28,432
All right, Culver.
Sit down.
127
00:08:30,009 --> 00:08:33,342
— This Granousky— He made me, didn‘t he?
—That‘s right.
128
00:08:33,413 --> 00:08:36,507
We wouldn‘t be back here otherwise.
How good was it?
129
00:08:36,582 --> 00:08:39,847
Positive identification.
130
00:08:41,821 --> 00:08:44,255
Sure.
131
00:08:44,323 --> 00:08:49,090
— Anything you‘d like to say?
— Eyeball witnesses aren‘t always reliable.
132
00:08:49,162 --> 00:08:51,926
Poor eyesight, tricky memory,
bad lighting conditions.
133
00:08:51,998 --> 00:08:56,025
Most all—night liquor stores are well—lighted.
Doesn‘t seem to be anything wrong
with Granousky‘s eyesight.
134
00:08:56,102 --> 00:08:59,196
He said the bandit was no more
than four feet a way fl’om him.
He made a mistake.
135
00:09:01,574 --> 00:09:03,303
Let‘s go over it again.
136
00:09:03,376 --> 00:09:06,607
7:15, I got$1 10 in marked money...
137
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:10,080
from Lt. Stephenson and Sgt. Appier
in that parking lot on Figueroa.
138
00:09:10,149 --> 00:09:12,982
— That part oughta check.
— It does.
139
00:09:13,052 --> 00:09:17,113
We talked to Captain Trembly in Narcotics.
The money, your assignment—
all that checks out.
140
00:09:17,190 --> 00:09:21,320
Waita minute.
Somethingjust came to me.
I can proveI didn‘t do it.
141
00:09:21,394 --> 00:09:24,158
— /don’t care what this Granouskysays.
/ can prove it
— Go ahead.
142
00:09:24,230 --> 00:09:26,494
— How much money was stolen?
— Eighty—seven dollars.
143
00:09:26,566 --> 00:09:29,194
I had 1 1 0 in the glove compartment.
That checks out.
144
00:09:29,268 --> 00:09:31,600
I had six dollars and change
of my own money.
145
00:09:31,671 --> 00:09:34,333
Where’s the 87?
/t wasn’t on me
and it wasn’t in the car.
146
00:09:34,407 --> 00:09:38,844
Where were you from the time
you left this Kinks character
until you were picked up at 9:22?
147
00:09:38,911 --> 00:09:42,847
— You think I stashed it someplace.
— Suppose you pick it up
from the time you parked.
148
00:09:42,915 --> 00:09:45,543
On Selma,just offCahuenga,
a little before 8:00.
149
00:09:45,618 --> 00:09:47,848
/ cruised around looking for Kinks.
150
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,151
/ made the Absolute,
the Apex and C oo/e y’s Pool Hall
Do you want the people /sawagain?
151
00:09:51,224 --> 00:09:54,250
— Only ifyou can come up
with some new ones.
— No, I can‘t.
152
00:09:54,327 --> 00:09:58,320
— We‘re running down the ones you gave us.
—I spotted Kinks in front ofthe Red Fox.
153
00:09:58,397 --> 00:10:01,798
We set it up.
I told him I‘d wait for him in the car,
and I took off.
154
00:10:01,868 --> 00:10:04,769
That was after 9:00
going on till a quarter after.
155
00:10:04,837 --> 00:10:07,806
I was at the car, waiting,
when the black—and—white came by.
That‘s it.
156
00:10:07,874 --> 00:10:10,536
— Let‘s go over a couple of points here.
— All right.
157
00:10:10,610 --> 00:10:13,408
— What time did you sayyou left this Kinks?
—Ijust told you.
158
00:10:13,479 --> 00:10:15,811
—Tell us again.
—I told him I‘d meet him at my car.
159
00:10:15,882 --> 00:10:18,009
— What time did you tell him that?
—A little after 9:00.
160
00:10:18,084 --> 00:10:20,245
— Pin it down.
— Around a quarter after 9:00.
161
00:10:20,319 --> 00:10:21,650
—You‘re sure?
— I‘m sure.
162
00:10:21,721 --> 00:10:24,622
— You sure it wasn‘t six minutes after?
— It was 15 after.
163
00:10:24,690 --> 00:10:27,625
[Gannon]
You told us before it was 9:06.
Well, I could be wrong.
164
00:10:27,693 --> 00:10:29,923
Which is it— 9:15, 9:06?
165
00:10:29,996 --> 00:10:32,089
— I guess I don‘t remember for sure.
— Try.
166
00:10:32,165 --> 00:10:35,293
— All right! I‘m not sure about
nine minutes worth oftonight.
—Get sure.
167
00:10:35,368 --> 00:10:37,996
Why do you keep pushing me?
What‘s so special about nine lousy minutes?
168
00:10:38,070 --> 00:10:40,698
I‘ll tell you what‘s so special
about those nine minutes.
169
00:10:40,773 --> 00:10:43,139
Tonight at approximately 9:05,
a liquor store was held up.
170
00:10:43,209 --> 00:10:45,939
That store is in the immediate vicinity
of your underco ver assignment
171
00:10:46,012 --> 00:10:48,105
The joints you hit are located
all around that store—
172
00:10:48,181 --> 00:10:50,547
the Red Fox, the Apex,
Coo/ey’s, theAbso/ute.
173
00:10:50,616 --> 00:10:54,211
In order to hit those places,
you had to walk directly past
that liquor store twice tonight.
174
00:10:54,287 --> 00:10:57,518
One ofthose times
you could have entered the store,
pulled the 211 at 9:06.
175
00:10:57,590 --> 00:10:59,581
We‘ve got an eyeball witness
that says you did.
176
00:10:59,659 --> 00:11:04,221
You could‘ve walked one block, stashed
the money along the way and been there at
your car when that black—and—white rolled up.
177
00:11:04,297 --> 00:11:07,460
You could‘ve done all that
in those nine lousy minutes.
That‘s what‘s so special about ‘em.
178
00:11:07,533 --> 00:11:10,525
— You don‘t believe that.
— Don‘t keep telling us
what we believe, Culver.
179
00:11:10,603 --> 00:11:12,537
That won‘t prove up for eight cents.
180
00:11:12,605 --> 00:11:15,165
It‘s not what we think.
It‘s what you did
with those nine minutes.
181
00:11:15,241 --> 00:11:18,608
Maybe I made a mistake.
Maybe itwas 9:06 like I said before.
182
00:11:18,678 --> 00:11:21,670
Maybe you were in that liquor store.
Maybe you pulled your gun on Granousky.
183
00:11:21,747 --> 00:11:25,683
Maybe you walked out
with 87 of his dollars.
I didn‘t, damn it! I didn‘t!
184
00:11:25,751 --> 00:11:29,585
— Where did you sayyou met Kinks?
— In front ofthe Red Fox.
185
00:11:29,655 --> 00:11:32,886
— You sure it wasn‘t the Absolute?
—I said, the Red Fox.
186
00:11:32,959 --> 00:11:35,257
— You also told us the Absolute.
— Did I?
187
00:11:35,328 --> 00:11:36,886
—Which was it?
— What‘s the difference?
188
00:11:36,963 --> 00:11:40,421
The difference is, the Red Fox
is four blocks farther away
from that liquor store.
189
00:11:40,499 --> 00:11:43,627
— Maybe that was it.
— What was it?
— It was the Red Fox!
190
00:11:43,703 --> 00:11:47,139
Not according to what
you told us the first time around.
You said it was the Absolute.
191
00:11:47,206 --> 00:11:51,540
That’s a block fl’om where you parked
All right. It was the Absolute,
ifthat‘s the way you want it.
192
00:11:51,611 --> 00:11:53,943
— We want the truth.
— Sure, you do. Your kind oftruth.
193
00:11:54,013 --> 00:11:57,141
You got a 211 on your hands.
You gotta pin it on somebody.
I‘m handy.
194
00:11:57,216 --> 00:11:59,514
You know better than that, Culver.
Do /?
195
00:11:59,585 --> 00:12:03,316
You keep tWisting even/thing / say
/ told you the straight story
the first time out
196
00:12:03,389 --> 00:12:05,983
You make me repeat it over and over.
Anybody‘s liable to get mixed up.
197
00:12:06,058 --> 00:12:08,618
You‘re a police officer.
You‘ve been trained not to get mixed up.
198
00:12:08,694 --> 00:12:11,185
How would you feel ifyou were
sitting in this chair right now?
199
00:12:11,264 --> 00:12:14,825
The two ofyou trying to
hang something on me I didn‘t do.
What kind of police force is this?
200
00:12:14,900 --> 00:12:17,630
A clean one, Culver,
and you‘re gonna help us keep it that way.
201
00:12:20,706 --> 00:12:23,607
All right.
Put me on the machine.
202
00:12:42,461 --> 00:12:45,191
[Friday Narra ting]
Thursday, November 77, 72:02 a. m.
203
00:12:45,264 --> 00:12:49,166
A t his own request,
Officer Paul Culver was given
the lie detector test
204
00:12:49,235 --> 00:12:53,228
Bill and / met with Lieutenant L ee Clingan
of the Scientific /n vest/gation Division.
205
00:12:53,306 --> 00:12:57,106
We laid out the key questions
to be used in the examination.
206
00:12:58,110 --> 00:13:02,672
7 2.20 a. m. Lieutenant Clingan began
the Kee/er polygraph examination.
207
00:13:05,685 --> 00:13:09,280
Thursday, November 7 7, 7:53 am.
208
00:13:21,701 --> 00:13:24,192
You want to go in
and sit down?
209
00:13:26,772 --> 00:13:29,240
What do you think now?
I don‘t know.
210
00:13:29,308 --> 00:13:32,141
Seven runs.
They all come out the same.
211
00:13:32,211 --> 00:13:36,739
Did you pick up any coffee?
An hour ago. It‘s cold.
Place is closed now.
212
00:13:39,852 --> 00:13:42,446
Cold.
213
00:13:42,521 --> 00:13:44,682
Sit down, Culver.
What for?
214
00:13:44,757 --> 00:13:47,248
I could tell from
the line ofquestioning.
You could tell what?
215
00:13:47,326 --> 00:13:49,351
I fiunked the test, didn‘t I?
Let‘s go over it.
216
00:13:49,428 --> 00:13:53,455
Why? The machine says I‘m a liar,
so what‘s there to go over?
Sit down, Culver.
217
00:13:53,532 --> 00:13:55,466
Come on.
218
00:13:59,472 --> 00:14:03,033
You know that Lieutenant Clingan
spent a long time getting a norm on you.
219
00:14:03,109 --> 00:14:07,842
— It was my idea to take the test.
— You‘d have taken it eventually.
It‘s the usual procedure.
220
00:14:07,913 --> 00:14:10,074
Let‘s get to it.
Show me how big a liarI am.
221
00:14:10,149 --> 00:14:12,617
What makes you so sure
the machine showed you up bad?
222
00:14:12,685 --> 00:14:14,619
Ijust know, that‘s all.
223
00:14:14,687 --> 00:14:18,589
The way things have been going tonight,
I wouldn‘t be surprised ifyou tried to pin
the St. Valentine‘s Day Massacre on me.
224
00:14:18,657 --> 00:14:21,285
There‘s some definite reactions
throughout all the runs.
225
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:23,555
— All bad.
— Nobody said that.
226
00:14:23,629 --> 00:14:25,563
You don‘t have to.
227
00:14:25,631 --> 00:14:30,227
I figured ifI volunteered to take the test,
that must show you something.
I‘m not lying about tonight.
228
00:14:30,302 --> 00:14:33,066
/’ve told you the truth,
the best / can remember it
/ don ’t care what those graphs say
229
00:14:33,139 --> 00:14:35,972
—Go on.
— This whole thing‘s so damned unfair.
230
00:14:36,041 --> 00:14:40,876
— How‘s that, Culver?
— I worked my tail offup at the academy.
I really wanted to be a police officer.
231
00:14:40,946 --> 00:14:43,710
I hit the books day and night,
finished ninth in my class.
232
00:14:43,783 --> 00:14:46,946
I‘m a four—dollar shooter.
I make 641 a month.
233
00:14:47,019 --> 00:14:51,251
I owe the police credit union 50 bucks,
and that‘s it— the whole ball ofwax.
234
00:14:51,323 --> 00:14:54,520
I take ajob the department asks me to do,
and I end up with my head in my lap.
235
00:14:54,593 --> 00:14:56,527
Now you tell me,
what‘s it all worth?
236
00:14:56,595 --> 00:15:00,053
You volunteered for
that undercover assignment, Culver.
You know that.
237
00:15:00,132 --> 00:15:04,296
All right. SoI did. I didn‘t know
it was gonna turn out like this.
238
00:15:04,370 --> 00:15:08,966
Being accused ofsomething
I might expect from that ruck and scum
I‘ve been dealing with the past two weeks.
239
00:15:09,041 --> 00:15:12,602
Yeah.
I go there trying to do ajob for the city,
and I end up in the hot seat.
240
00:15:12,678 --> 00:15:14,612
Well, I‘ve had a gut full.
241
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:18,673
You can have the badge, the uniform
and all that goes with it. I‘ve had it.
242
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,654
Tell me something, Culver.
243
00:15:23,722 --> 00:15:28,182
Why? So you can twist it around?
You‘ve got me made.
244
00:15:28,260 --> 00:15:32,060
You’ve got that eyeball witness, the machine,
nine minutes / can ’t account for.
245
00:15:32,131 --> 00:15:35,032
— You don‘t need anything else.
— What‘s eating at you, Culver?
246
00:15:35,100 --> 00:15:38,627
— Now, that‘s a brilliant question.
— Never mind the smart answer.
Just give us a straight one.
247
00:15:38,704 --> 00:15:41,172
5omething’s gi ving you a problem
besides this mess tonight
248
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,334
— You don‘t think this is enough?
—I didn‘t say that. Now, what is it?
249
00:15:47,546 --> 00:15:49,946
What is it? Trouble at home?
I‘m not married.
250
00:15:50,015 --> 00:15:52,176
We know that.
Something‘s bothering you.
251
00:15:52,251 --> 00:15:56,119
— What makes you so sure?
— You‘ve got a personal problem
kicking around somewhere.
252
00:15:56,188 --> 00:15:58,816
— You wouldn‘t be interested.
— Try us and see.
253
00:15:58,891 --> 00:16:01,724
— It‘s something you couldn‘t arrest me for.
— Come on, Culver. Let‘s have it.
254
00:16:01,794 --> 00:16:03,887
It‘s not gonna make
any difference here.
255
00:16:03,963 --> 00:16:08,161
— You‘re engaged to be married, aren‘t you?
— Who told you that? That‘s not in my package.
256
00:16:08,234 --> 00:16:12,000
— That‘s right, isn‘t it?
— You two really dig into
a man‘s personal life, don‘t you?
257
00:16:12,071 --> 00:16:14,198
No, but these graphs do sometimes.
258
00:16:15,341 --> 00:16:17,332
Maybe that‘s a lie too.
259
00:16:17,409 --> 00:16:19,741
— Tell us about your girl.
— You want her phone number?
260
00:16:19,812 --> 00:16:23,714
Listen, this is the last time I‘m gonna
tell you to save the cute answers.
You understand?
261
00:16:23,782 --> 00:16:26,114
lf it’s that personal,
and you don’t wanna talk
about it, all right
262
00:16:26,185 --> 00:16:29,348
But ifnot, it might be best
to put it right here on the table.
263
00:16:29,421 --> 00:16:31,981
[Shaky Sigh]
What‘s the difference?
264
00:16:32,057 --> 00:16:35,390
You might as well know.
She told me two days ago.
265
00:16:35,461 --> 00:16:38,191
— Told you what?
— We broke up.
266
00:16:38,264 --> 00:16:41,358
— You‘re not gonna get married?
— No.
267
00:16:41,433 --> 00:16:44,266
Haven‘t even finished
paying for the ring.
268
00:16:44,336 --> 00:16:46,827
— She give you a reason?
— Yeah.
269
00:16:46,906 --> 00:16:50,342
— Feel like telling us what it was?
— I‘ve been expecting it.
270
00:16:50,409 --> 00:16:53,640
— Yeah.
— Ever since I took the first exam for thejob.
271
00:16:53,712 --> 00:16:56,340
I think she thought I might fail.
I didn‘t.
272
00:16:56,415 --> 00:16:59,976
— What‘s the problem?
— She doesn‘t want to be married to a cop.
273
00:17:00,052 --> 00:17:02,418
She says I can do better.
274
00:17:02,488 --> 00:17:04,820
In other words,
you‘re a college man.
275
00:17:04,890 --> 00:17:08,155
She‘d like to have seen you land ajob
with a little more status attached,
276
00:17:08,227 --> 00:17:10,889
— I guess that‘s part ofit.
— But not all ofit.
277
00:17:12,064 --> 00:17:16,296
I think maybe
I can understand how she feels,
and maybe she‘s right, Culver.
278
00:17:16,368 --> 00:17:19,269
/t ’s a wk ward ha ving a policeman
around the house.
279
00:17:19,338 --> 00:17:24,037
Friends drop in,
a man with a badge answers the door,
the temperature drops 20 degrees.
280
00:17:24,109 --> 00:17:27,044
You throw a party,
and that badge gets in the way.
281
00:17:27,112 --> 00:17:30,445
All ofa sudden,
there isn‘t a straight man in the crowd.
Everybody‘s a comedian.
282
00:17:30,516 --> 00:17:33,849
“Don‘t drink too much," somebody says,
“or the man with the badge will run you in."
283
00:17:33,919 --> 00:17:37,616
Or “How‘s it going, Dick Tracy?
How manyjaywalkers did you pinch today?"
284
00:17:37,690 --> 00:17:41,854
And then there is always
the one who wants to know
ho w many app/es you stole.
285
00:17:41,927 --> 00:17:43,952
All at once,
you lost your first name.
286
00:17:44,029 --> 00:17:46,361
You‘re a cop, a fiatfoot,
a bull, a dick,John Law.
287
00:17:46,432 --> 00:17:50,061
You‘re the fuzz, the heat.
You‘re poison. You‘re trouble.
You‘re bad news.
288
00:17:50,135 --> 00:17:54,367
They call you everything,
but never a policeman.
289
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,374
Maybe she‘s right.
290
00:17:57,776 --> 00:18:00,677
/t’s not much ofa life unless you
don ’t mind missing a Dodger game. ..
291
00:18:00,746 --> 00:18:02,941
because the hotshot phone rings,
292
00:18:03,015 --> 00:18:06,041
unless you like working
Saturdays, Sundays, holidays...
293
00:18:06,118 --> 00:18:08,348
at a job that doesn ’t pay overtime.
294
00:18:08,420 --> 00:18:12,413
Oh, the pay‘s adequate.
Ifyou count your pennies,
you can put your kid through college.
295
00:18:12,491 --> 00:18:16,325
But you better plan on seeing Europe
on your television set.
296
00:18:16,395 --> 00:18:18,886
And then there‘s
your first night on the beat,
297
00:18:18,964 --> 00:18:23,367
when you try to arrest
a drunken prostitute in a Main Street bar,
and she rips your new uniform to shreds.
298
00:18:23,435 --> 00:18:26,768
You‘ll buy another one
out ofyour own pocket.
299
00:18:26,839 --> 00:18:29,774
And you‘re gonna rub elbows
with all the elite—
300
00:18:29,842 --> 00:18:32,436
pimps, addicts,
thieves, bums, winos,
301
00:18:32,511 --> 00:18:35,742
girls who can‘t keep an address
and men who don‘t care.
302
00:18:35,814 --> 00:18:37,839
Liars, cheats, con men.
303
00:18:37,916 --> 00:18:40,851
The class ofSkid Row.
304
00:18:40,919 --> 00:18:42,978
And the heartbreak.
305
00:18:43,055 --> 00:18:46,115
Underfed kids, beaten kids,
molested kids, lost kids,
306
00:18:46,191 --> 00:18:48,659
crying kids, homeless kids,
307
00:18:48,727 --> 00:18:51,161
hit—and—run kids,
broken—arm kids, broken—leg kids,
308
00:18:51,230 --> 00:18:55,291
broken—head kids, sick kids,
dying kids, dead kids.
309
00:18:55,367 --> 00:18:58,165
The old people that nobody wants—
the reliefers, the pensioners,
310
00:18:58,237 --> 00:19:00,228
the ones who walk the street cold...
311
00:19:00,305 --> 00:19:04,765
and those who tried to keep warm
and died in a three—dollar room
with an unvented gas heater.
312
00:19:04,843 --> 00:19:07,744
You‘ll walkyour beat
and try to pick up the pieces.
313
00:19:07,813 --> 00:19:13,080
Do you have real adventure in your soul?
You better have, ‘cause you‘re gonna
do time in a prowl car.
314
00:19:13,152 --> 00:19:17,145
Oh, it’s gonna be a thrill—a—minute
when you get an unknown trouble call
and hit a backyard at 2:00 in the morning
315
00:19:17,222 --> 00:19:20,453
ne ver kno wing who you ’// meet—
a kid with a knife, a pill head with a gun...
316
00:19:20,526 --> 00:19:23,654
or two ex—cons with nothing to lose.
317
00:19:23,729 --> 00:19:26,061
You‘re gonna have
plenty oftime to think.
318
00:19:26,131 --> 00:19:30,568
You‘ll draw duty in a lonely car
with nobody to talk to but your radio.
319
00:19:31,737 --> 00:19:35,366
Fouryears in uniform,
you‘ll have the ability,
the experience and maybe the desire...
320
00:19:35,441 --> 00:19:37,375
to be a detective.
321
00:19:37,443 --> 00:19:41,573
Ifyou like to fly
by the seat ofyour pants,
this is where you belong.
322
00:19:41,647 --> 00:19:43,808
For every crime that‘s committed,
323
00:19:43,882 --> 00:19:47,045
you‘ve got three million suspects
to choose from.
324
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,850
Most ofthe time
you‘ll have few facts
and a lot ofhunches.
325
00:19:50,923 --> 00:19:53,255
You‘ll run down leads
that dead—end on you.
326
00:19:53,325 --> 00:19:56,226
You‘ll work all—night stakeouts
that could last a week.
327
00:19:56,295 --> 00:19:59,822
You‘ll do legwork until you‘re sure
you‘ve talked to everybody
in the state ofCalifornia.
328
00:19:59,898 --> 00:20:02,423
People who saw it happen,
but really didn ’t
329
00:20:02,501 --> 00:20:04,731
People who insist they did it,
but really didn ’t
330
00:20:04,803 --> 00:20:07,829
People who remember.
Those who try to forget.
331
00:20:07,906 --> 00:20:10,170
Those who tell the truth.
Those who lie.
332
00:20:10,242 --> 00:20:12,733
You‘ll run the files
until your eyes ache.
333
00:20:12,811 --> 00:20:15,803
And paperwork?
Ah,you‘ll fill out a report
when you‘re right.
334
00:20:15,881 --> 00:20:17,872
You‘ll fill out a report
when you‘re wrong.
335
00:20:17,950 --> 00:20:22,114
You‘ll fill one out when you‘re not sure.
You‘ll fill one out listing your leads.
You‘ll fill one out when you have no leads.
336
00:20:22,187 --> 00:20:24,747
You‘ll make out a report
on the reports you‘ve made.
337
00:20:24,823 --> 00:20:28,816
You‘ll write enough words
in your lifetime to stock a library.
338
00:20:28,894 --> 00:20:32,227
You‘ll learn to live with doubt,
anxiety, frustration,
339
00:20:32,297 --> 00:20:34,959
court decisions that tend to hinder
rather than help you.
340
00:20:35,033 --> 00:20:37,934
Dorado, Morse, Escobedo, Cahan.
341
00:20:38,003 --> 00:20:41,029
You‘ll learn to live
with the district attorney,
testifying in court,
342
00:20:41,106 --> 00:20:45,167
defense attorneys,
prosecuting attorneys,
judges,juries, witnesses.
343
00:20:45,244 --> 00:20:48,236
And sometimes you‘re not gonna
be happy with the outcome.
344
00:20:49,748 --> 00:20:53,275
Maybe your girlfriend‘s right, Culver,
345
00:20:53,352 --> 00:20:55,912
but there‘s also this—
346
00:20:55,988 --> 00:20:58,422
There are over 5,000 men
in this city...
347
00:20:58,490 --> 00:21:03,325
who know that being a policeman is
an endless, glamourless, thanklessjob
that‘s gotta be done.
348
00:21:03,395 --> 00:21:07,058
I know it, too,
and I‘m damn glad to be one of‘em.
349
00:21:12,304 --> 00:21:14,966
[Knocking]
350
00:21:19,778 --> 00:21:21,803
— Sergeant?
— Yeah, Culver?
351
00:21:23,148 --> 00:21:25,810
— Nothing.
— [Door Opens]
352
00:21:25,884 --> 00:21:28,148
Joe, see you a minute?
353
00:21:31,957 --> 00:21:33,948
That was the old man.
Yeah?
354
00:21:34,026 --> 00:21:36,995
Guy by the name of Michaelson.
Hollywood‘s booking him now.
What about him?
355
00:21:37,062 --> 00:21:41,192
He‘s practically a double for Culver.
Even wearing a black navy watch cap.
356
00:21:41,266 --> 00:21:45,066
Blond 6 ’2’§ the works.
Knocked overanother/iquorstore
an hour ago.
357
00:21:45,137 --> 00:21:48,072
— They have a show—up?
— Granousky says he still doesn‘t believe it.
358
00:21:48,140 --> 00:21:51,234
Says he‘s sorry, but anybody
could make the same mistake.
359
00:21:51,310 --> 00:21:54,108
According to Hollywood,
Culver and Michaelson
are dead ringers.
360
00:21:54,179 --> 00:21:57,012
— Michaelson cop out?
— All the way.
361
00:21:57,082 --> 00:22:01,519
Admitted four other
liquor store 211s besides Herbie‘s
and the last one where they grabbed him.
362
00:22:03,021 --> 00:22:06,889
Well, sometimes it‘s not
such a sour racket, is it?
363
00:22:09,695 --> 00:22:12,596
I‘m buying dinner tonight
for both ofus.
364
00:22:12,664 --> 00:22:14,393
You mean breakfast.
365
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:24,034
— Go on home.
— Huh?
366
00:22:24,109 --> 00:22:27,203
You got a twin, Culver.
They tell us he‘s practically identical.
367
00:22:27,279 --> 00:22:30,112
Even dressed the same—
nai4/ watch cap, jacket
368
00:22:30,182 --> 00:22:33,549
— They caught the guy?
— Granousky says it was
an easy mistake to make.
369
00:22:38,490 --> 00:22:41,721
Good night.
Good night.
370
00:22:41,793 --> 00:22:43,988
Either one ofyou
have change for a quarter?
371
00:22:45,297 --> 00:22:47,265
Just made it.
372
00:22:47,332 --> 00:22:50,631
Thanks.
Gotta make a phone call.
What are you gonna tell her?
373
00:22:50,702 --> 00:22:53,296
What he told me.
Sergeant, one thing
374
00:22:53,372 --> 00:22:56,102
— What‘s that?
— The lie detector.
375
00:22:56,174 --> 00:22:58,836
How‘d I really do?
The truth.
376
00:22:58,911 --> 00:23:02,779
— You passed.
— How come you didn‘t tell me?
377
00:23:02,848 --> 00:23:04,839
You didn‘t ask us, Paul.
378
00:23:40,585 --> 00:23:43,247
[Narrator]
The story you ha ve just seen is true.
379
00:23:43,322 --> 00:23:46,086
The names were changed
to protect the innocent
380
00:23:47,092 --> 00:23:51,654
/n terna/ A fifairs Division concluded
the in ves tiga tion of Ofi7cer Paul Culver.
381
00:23:51,730 --> 00:23:54,392
/n a moment,
the results of that conclusion.
